Netanyahu forms coalition shortly before deadline

 

According to Press TV, shortly before 11 p.m. local time on Wednesday, Netanyahu, the leader of Likud Party, appeared before reporters at the Zionist regime’s parliament, Knesset, announcing a deal with the Jewish Home (Bayit Yehudi), a Zionist pro-settlement party.

The deal would give the Zionist regime’s premier the 61 seats necessary to form the administration.

In return for support from his eight MPs, Jewish Home Chairman Naftali Bennett, the current economy minister, had demanded serving as the justice minister.

The pro-settlement party leader, an outspoken opponent of establishing a Palestinian state said ”Mr. prime minister, we are behind you for the success of the country and the government you head.”

Netanyahu was able to sign similar deals with other Israeli parties, the ultra-orthodox parties United Torah Judaism (UTJ) and Shas as well as the center-right Kulanu, in an attempt to gain the seats necessary out of the parliament’s 120.

Gaining the minimum seats means Bibi can hold onto his premiership for a fourth term seven weeks after his party won the election.
